Celtic Connections - Julie Fowlis

[LECBcontroller]

@kevinmeehan71 the name of that tune is called "Peter Byrne's". Great tunes and lovely Julie :)

[kevinmeehan71]

fiddle player is amazing what is that solo tune he plays?

[SWO28]

Julie originally came from North Uist. Gaelic is spoken by most locals there, and also on the Isle of Lewis,Harris and Skye. What a lovely piece of music, it makes you proud to be Scottish.

[kevinmeehan71]

any1 know the name of that bodhran player?

[soupdragon151]

@kevinmeehan71 he's called Martin O'Neill. He runs a workshop teaching drumming

[snahomish]

For those who don't know, Scotch is a drink. The people from Scotland are called Scots. You can be Scottish. The language is Scots Gaelic, pronounced Galic. Scotch is whiskey.

[hsalien]

@snahomish ...and Scotch is whisky - whiskey is the Irish version.

[donaialbo]

Iam very interested in celtic music , at most the tradional or old ones. Could anybody help me to find a right ressource of them. It may be video channel, online radio or eLibrary. Thanks so much

[MrtyMrtn]

@donaialbo You are on the right track... Research Julie Fowlis, she is recording the old Celtic or Scotch Gaelic music. Another good website is: Thistle Radio. Lot's of good music there...

[MrHandyronny]

The best celtic music performance the i've ever seen so far..

It's so adorable..

[lubiehotdogi]

anybody know what chords or tuninng play guy on the guitar?? It's DADGAD?

[santiano42]

@lubiehotdogi Looks like he's playing normal tuning with a capo on the 1st or 2nd fret (my eyes aren't so good...) the penultimate tune is in G so I think he sticks to G, C and D mostly

[santiano42]

@lubiehotdogi And The Soup Dragon is in Bm of all keys I think

[roenickolai]

I actuallt want to marry this woman.

[parko2112]

@roenickolai She's married to the guy on the far left of the stage (Eamonn Doorley)....and the mother to his child!

[acousticems]

Wow, brilliant! Such good and crisp ornamentation by the whistle player!

[priser24]

@acousticems Check out some of the videos where she sings. She has a wonderful voice.

[priser24]

@acousticems Just noticed that she sings a bit in this one, but she showcases it more on other tunes. Anyway, she is certainly very talented.

[raymondo8487]

Brings back such good memories. Was an excellent night

[KateFan]

She deserves to be better known. She's an amazing singer and instrumentalist. In fact they're all fantastic musicians.

[Dallilja]

Brilliant

[mhicnanolc]

I LOVE THAT WOMAN! Tapadh leibh a Tom!

[guase1]

thanks for this video.

[lowemk]

Can anyone tell me who is playing what instrument? I am not familiar with the drum like instrument that the gentleman is playing sitting to the left of Julie Fowlis in the video. Perhaps it is similar to a hope-a -folk. I am probably spelling that incorrectly but spelled it like I have heard it pronounced. Great post.

[KNQuail]

The "drum like instrument" is a bodhran. I won't swear to the names of the musicians but I think it is

Eamon Doorley - bouzouki

Duncan Chisholm - fiddle

Ewan Vernal - bass

Martin O'Neill - bodhran

Tony Byrne - guitar

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong!

[lowemk]

Thank you very much for taking the time to answer me. It is very helpful. These are all great musicians.
